Folded and Perforated Cor-ten  

30 January 2011






The idea of a folding facade isn't new, but I'm still digging this particular iteration. Designed by Andre Kikoski Architect and located in Brooklyn, this mixed use building offers evening protection, convertible awnings, individual storefront openings, and a highly stylized and ever-changing facade. Personally, my favorite view is down the sidewalk, allowing you to actually experience the folded awnings.

2 Panscapes

Two great minimalist bakeries by Japanese firm ninkipen!

Both projects make use of readily available materials combined with minimalist detailing in order to let the bread take center stage. I can almost smell it baking from here!

And totally unrelated... after an accidental hiatus, I'm going to make an effort to get back into the swing of blogging this year. Wish me luck!
